B’nai Mitzvah

BRJC is known for the way in which b’nai mizvah children (and adults) are involved in their b’nai mitzvah services. Our rabbi prepares each individual to conduct prayers, read from the Torah, chant the Haftorah and deliver their own special interpretation of what their Torah portion has taught them ethically. This is an opportunity for each student to explore his/her own Jewish identity. Parents participate in the services, and speak to their child about the important Jewish meaning of this lifecycle moment.
